On the eve of any holiday, you can surprise your loved one by creating beautiful flowers from corrugated paper. Such artificial flowers are practically indistinguishable from natural ones, except that there is no smell. The ease of creation and durability of corrugated paper flowers open up the widest possibilities for creative experiments for every person.
Instructions
Step 1
You can buy multicolored corrugated paper in almost every market and stationery store. Make an effort and patiently follow the instructions - in a few hours you can create an attractive arrangement of paper flowers that will significantly revitalize and embellish the interior of any room. To make flowers with your own hands, you need to have some skills in working with corrugated paper. You need to be able to cut it, leaving smooth edges, and make smooth bends, which will emphasize the sophistication of the entire composition.
Step 2
Take a sheet of red paper and cut a piece 5-7 cm wide from it. You can make 8 tulip petals from it. Then fold the piece of paper, constantly joining the ends together. Next, cut out the tulip petals and twist one end. And bend the other end in a semicircle, if you need to stretch the paper, so that later they can be connected into a bud.
Step 3
Fasten all the petals into a bud and wrap the trunk with green paper. Cut a leaf out of green paper so that the tulip has a complete shape. Make a bend along the entire length of the leaf in the middle. Next, attach it to the trunk. That's all, the creation of the flower is complete.
Step 4
Over time, with more experience, you will be able to create more complex corrugated paper compositions that you can later put up for sale. The benefit of creating such crafts is that you not only enjoy the process itself, but also learn how to make a flower. In addition, in terms of price / quality ratio, flowers made of corrugated paper do not differ in any way and even somewhat surpass natural ones. You also develop perseverance and diligence in yourself, which are so important when performing routine and monotonous work.
